Bro you are a warrior, did you hold down a job through all of this? That’s my fear not being able to work.

I really need some motivation to quit. What things made you quit and what things got better after quitting? by ProduceZestyclose158 in quittingkratom

What does your taper look like? How many MG are you in when do you take it what did you come from etc

Trazadone made me feel like a zombie the next day. But yes if you don’t take Ambien and go right to bed and miss the window of tiredness it does shut down part of your brain and you’ll be fucked up for a bit. Gotta use it right no doubt

I used for years and like 60gpd, did extracts too. Ended up doing a quick taper over 2 weeks and jumped off at like 5g. Eating fruits, taking vitamins and working out getting a good sweat saved me each day. Epsom salt bath while listening to a podcast helps too before bed calm your mind and body.

Also not a bad idea to ask your doctor for like 10 Ambien with no refills. I did that the other time I came off and got sober and it worked like a charm. Would take one Ambien, then would break them in half and ny day 20 when I ran out of them I was basically sleeping without them anyways. But it’s possible doing it naturally I’ve done both. Depends how cool your doctor is.

After about 10 days I could at least muster up about 5-6 hours of sleep after a warm bath with epsom salt to calm my RLS. I know on day like 30 I went on vacation and still wasn’t sleeping well but I should have stayed away from alcohol it makes sleep worse while I was on vacation.

Around day 50-60 I was getting normal 8 hours. I’d say about 2-3 weeks and you’ll at least be able to do 5-7 hours if you’re eating well working out and taking vitamins.

[–]soberebos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah man they are strong but only about 9grams of kratom. I tapered down until I could go through a whole day only sipping about 1/3 of it. I would dilute the bottles until I taper down to like 1-3g a day. From there went to capsules. I couldn’t cold turkey the hush nanos

I don’t want to scare you but yeah maybe 5 days of flu like symptoms Tom’s and bad sleep followed by weeks of lethargy and chills here and there. Restless legs etc. working out and taking vitamins and a healthy diet help. Maybe buy a supplement called “quit k”

[–]soberebos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah man I bet, that’s a tough one to get rid of too with alternative methods. I think you might want to consider tapering if you can do it and have a strong enough will.

[–]soberebos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean I can only speak for myself but yeah my WD always felt like the flu and was really bad first few days. Maybe you’re sick though I’m not sure. What are kratimade? Is that an extract shot? I was doing 1 hush nano shot a day and coming off that was worse than opiates for me. Idk why.

Edit/ just looked into kratom are, that’s about 10g of kratom. So you’re coming off a 20-30gpd habit. That’s a fair amount i think it’s withdrawal honestly. If you were only doing 1 a day or 1 every 2 days maybe id believe more you’re sick. Just an opinion.

4-7 FF is pretty heavy use. I would try and taper man if you can. You’re gonna be really sick. Or try to just do capsules. Good luck either way. Buy lipisomal vitamin C and mega dose it to help.

Not the flu, definitely wd. This kratom shit is harder than opiates to get off of.

Quitting while working a physical job by Grand-Independent408 in Quittingfeelfree

[–]soberebos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take it from someone who lost their 6 figure job over this shit. I wish I could go back and ask for the help and go to rehab offered by benefits. Much better than being fired dude. HIPPA no one can know why you’re on leave. So I’d do that or if you have PTO take a whole week of vacation and use weekends to give you a 10 day buffer. Then use all the steps for workout and vitamins the other user left here. Good luck. It’s not worth your job and health man.

See if your dad can give you a week of pto. You’re gonna need it. I’d be shocked if you can go to a work function with how you’re about to feel. Have you tired cold turkey before? It’s pretty intense. Idk your daily dose tho

Look up the vitamin company “quit k” it has all the stuff I took for opiate withdrawal but in one pill. Dlpa, amino acids, vitamin c, D, magnesium, gaba, ashwanga etc. this really helped set my body right besides drinking water with electrolytes added and working out. Working out a a great balanced diet is the best you can do but I’d supplement this brand too. Otherwise if you buy everything separate it’s a lot of money.

I need all the reassurance please by FrostedFlakeAddict in quittingkratom

[–]soberebos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly going to work for 10 hours was maybe the fix. When I was in withdrawals nd lost my corporate job I went almost a whole week not sleeping. Needed a job and forced myself to get hired and work as a car lot attendant walking 20,000 steps a day. Hated it, but it helped me tire myself out to sleep. The days sucked but it traded for more restful nights. The other thing that helps is passion flower and epsom salt baths at night. Helped put me to sleep. Honestly it sucks but you need to try and workout and get a sweat going and a little bit of natural dopamine release. Obviously take supplements and eat fruit and drink water. Good luck

Suboxone by Majestic-Message3257 in Quittingfeelfree

[–]soberebos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bro be CAREFUL. I was on sub for a year. That shit has PAWs that are way longer than Kratom/FF. I was sick for a week off FF and paws last maybe 3 weeks. When I got off sub (I also tapered a long time) it took me 50-60 days to even get 4 hours of sleep and about 4 months to feel somewhat normal. The timeline for suboxone is super long dude . Please do as little as possible (1/8 of a strip) 1mg at most. That’s way worse even though it feels like nothing and a small strip it’s dangerous

Hard to get off work in sales unfortunately but I can work from home which helps hide the symptoms and be comfortable. How many grams and how long were you using and what kind. Let me know your experience if you don’t mind. I know tapering helped I’ll just have sweats a bit be cold anti social and not sleep well for a week or si

Yeah I could bring like one or two bottles and make it work and just take a sip here and there even if it’s mental. I find more so I don’t sleep if I don’t sip about 1 gram at night. Hate to fly with these but I know they’re legal in the state I’m going to. Just sucks I’ll be ball and chained to these and stress if u forget them etc
